Snoopy and The Peanuts Gang Have Arrived

A couple of weeks ago I told you about how Snoopy is the official spokesdog for National Library Card Sign-Up Month 2015. If your library uses library cards, you have to check out the cooler than cool Snoopy library card artwork that you can request (by emailing LibraryCard@Peanuts.com) for your new cards. All the stir about Snoopy, the upcoming Peanuts Movie, and a Snoopy t-shirt I just received from my dearest for my birthday all inspired me to deck out our library in Snoopy swag for the new school year. I'm not sure that I'm completely done, but the library is ready for classes to begin on Monday. Here are a few peeks into our space.

The Peanuts Gang's love of libraries is made clear through many of Schulz' comics. Our entrance is decked out with favorite Peanuts library quotes paired with Peanuts character cutouts. The quotations are typed using Peanuts font, which is available for free.
